....There is absolutely nothing and I mean nothing "scientific" about the internet . 99 to 1 ratio still stands. You´re equating communication with Science. Just like that other pseudo- scientist who posted that the printing press was a "scientific invention". Smoke n mirrors.
That´s what I mean by Science ( I guess we can also add most scientists too) being 99% full of baloney theory at a measly 1% science fact.

If the Internet and what makes it possible doesn't constitute an example of science and its ubiquitous myriad contributions, and he/she seriously contends that science is "99% baloney theory," then just what does qualify as "science" to this person? What does he/she think science actually IS, anyway?
To maintain such a contention, even in the face of the refutations given already, is surely a sign of either the most stubborn trolldom or sheer pathological delusion -- or, possibly, yet another example of the Fundie Word Redefinition Project, in which a word (especially a scientific term) means only and entirely what the fundie intends it to mean, notwithstanding what any mere secular dictionaries (or actual scientists) might claim.

I am The " original " Ascetic Crusader.
I stand by me claim that there is nothing "scientific" about the internet.
The internet is just another fancy shmancy word for "assembly". The only difference being that instead of voicing our opinions, we type or click them.
Who would have the gall to claim that before the internet there was no communication ? No sharing of information ? No "forums" ? No commerce ? The internet is just another example of people "reinventing the wheel".
I call troll. This "Ascetic Crusader" is just on an attention-getting joyride, deliberately pretending to misunderstand the arguments made against his original assertion (which I thought was possibly troll material in the first place, but now I'm sure) as well as his subsequent comments.
Yahweh, feel free to delete this entire thread, since the quoted post is obviously not the work of a "true" fundy, but of someone just trying to blend in and outdo them at their own game.

"Hey Justin GG
Since yer handin´ out awards how about
sittin´ on one ? Ya might learn something, ya filthy heathen. You´ll come around Justin...you´ll come around."
Good gravy! What the hell does this even mean? Surely you could have taken a few minutes and at least come up with something clever. I mean, sit on an award? Really? The only reason I'm insulted is that I'd think I at least deserve a better insult.
This is typical of their tactics against science. Basically anything that exists today, they believe, can't be science. Why? Because to argue against science you have to dismiss all it's products and narrow all science down to only the speculative theorys, the unproven .
This is why they bring the Big Bang into biological evolution arguments and deny engineering and metalurgy (printing press) are scientific diciplines. Tallships, Cars, Jet airliners, Satellites, computers,,,etc,,,all due to mans God-Given ingenuity, no science needed!
The flock is convinced this makes sense apparently ,as many do this.
The communication itself isn't scientific, no, but the equipment and the way the communication is transferred definitely are scientific. All inventions are scientific per definition. Science is just the organization of knowledge.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
